2. In-Depth Medical Evaluation & Evidence-Based Insights
Modern reproductive medicine relies on microscopic precision. At FaithStep, protocols developed through advanced Indian and European training at Delhi India & Kiel Germany are applied to every cycle:
- Individualized Ovarian Protocols: Avoiding generic 'cookie-cutter' stimulation; hormone dosing is calibrated to antral follicle counts, baseline AMH, and previous response markers.
- Advanced Cleanroom Embryology: Maintaining Class 10,000 air quality, low-oxygen tri-gas benchtop incubators, and strict temperature stability to ensure embryos reach the Day 5/6 blastocyst stage without cellular stress.

3. Comparing Treatment Pathways: Making Informed Choices
Couples often wonder whether to proceed with conservative management, timed intrauterine insemination (IUI), or advanced in-vitro fertilization (IVF) paired with ICSI. The decision requires clear diagnostic benchmarks:
- Diagnostic Patency: Evaluating fallopian tube health and uterine cavity contouring via 3D ultrasound or diagnostic hysteroscopy.
- Sperm Functional Competence: Beyond macroscopic count and motility, testing sperm DNA integrity (DFI) ensures optimal fertilization.
- Endometrial Synchronization: Ensuring optimal triple-line endometrial thickness (>7.5–8mm) with healthy uterine vascular perfusion before embryo transfer.

5. Frequently Asked Questions
What screening tests are mandatory for egg and sperm donors under Indian law?
Comprehensive infectious disease screening (HIV, Hepatitis B & C, Syphilis), karyotyping, Thalassemia carrier screening, and complete psychiatric and health evaluations.
Can a donor claim legal rights over the child in the future?
No. Under the ART Act 2021, gamete donors relinquish all parental, legal, and inheritance rights; the commissioning parents hold sole legal parenthood from the moment of conception.
Does FaithStep prioritize autologous (own egg) cycles before donor programs?
Yes, emphatically. Dr. Angelynn Singh exhausts all personalized mild-stimulation and DuoStim protocols with your own eggs before considering donor options.
